California Wines & Wineries: Mira Cabernet Franc Hyde Vineyard 2013
2013 Mira Cabernet Franc from Hyde Vineyard – A Wonderful Treat
On the eyes, the deep crimson color and medium heavy viscosity alerts one that something special is being poured into the glass. On the nose, red currant, soft pipe tobacco, black licorice and herbal fragrances are dominant. On the palate, a range of dark fruits (blackberry and blueberry) counterbalance with dark chocolate and mild oak notes envelop the mouth. The finish is well structured and layered providing a long lasting smooth finish with strong but tamed tannins.
In the 2019 Cabernet Franc Wine Competition, hosted by California Wines and Wineries, 2013 Mira Cabernet Franc scored a Gold Medal in their class by the Professional Judges.
